Terms of Sale (businesses and consumers)

(1)      Introduction

 Please read these terms of sale carefully. 

 You will be asked to expressly agree to these terms of sale before you place an order for products from our website. 

 (2)      Interpretation

 In these terms of sale, “we” means Safetyfirst Lifting Gear Services Limited (and “us” and “our” will be construed accordingly); and “you” means our customer or potential customer for products (and “your” will be construed accordingly).

 (3)      Order process

 The advertising of products on our website constitutes an “invitation to treat”; and your order for products constitutes a contractual offer. No contract will come into force between you and us unless and until we accept your order in accordance with the procedure detailed below.

 In order to enter into a contract to purchase products from us, you will need to take the following steps: (i) you must add the products you wish to purchase to your shopping cart, and then proceed to the checkout; (ii) if you are a new customer, you must then create an account with us and log in; if you are an existing customer, you must enter your login details; (iii) once you are logged in, you must select your preferred method of delivery and confirm your order and your consent to these terms of sale; (iv) you will be transferred to the PayPal or payment processor website, and PayPal or the patyment processor will handle your payment; (v) we will then send you an initial acknowledgement; and (vi) once we have checked whether we are able to meet your order, we will either send you an order confirmation (at which point your order will become a binding contract) or we will confirm by email that we are unable to meet your order.

 We will not file a copy of these terms of sale specifically in relation to your order. We may update the version of these terms of sale on the website from time to time, and we do not guarantee that the version you have agreed to will remain accessible. We therefore recommend that you download, print and retain a copy of these terms of sale for your records.

 The only language in which we provide these terms of sale is English.

 Before you place your order, you will have the opportunity of identifying whether you have made any input errors by checking the order on screen. You may correct those input errors before placing your order by amending the order on screen.

 Any telephone order must be confirmed in writing before the order is processed.

 (4)      The products

 All products on the website.

 (5)      Price and payment

 Prices for products are quoted on our website. The website contains a large number of products and it is always possible that some of the prices on the website may be incorrect. We will verify prices as part of our sale procedures so that a product's correct price will be stated when you pay for the product.

 In addition to the price of the products, you may have to pay a delivery charge, which will be as stated when you pay for the product.

Payment must be made upon the submission of your order. We may withhold the products and/or cancel the contract between us if the price is not received from you in full in cleared funds. 

The prices on the website include all value added taxes (where applicable).

 Payment for all products must be made by credit/debit card OR any method detailed on the website from time to time.

 Prices for products are liable to change at any time, but changes will not affect contracts which have come into force.

 If you are a business customer, then from time to time we may agree to open an account for you, enabling you to pay in arrears. Where you hold an account, then upon or following the dispatch of products, we will send to you an invoice for payment of the price of those products, and you will pay such invoice within 30 days of the date of the invoice. Accounts will be subject to such credit limits as we may notify to you from time to time. If you do not pay any amount properly due to us under or in connection with these terms of sale on time, we may: charge you interest on the overdue amount at the rate of 8% per year above the base rate of Barclays Bank Plc from time to time (which interest will accrue daily until the date of actual payment, be compounded quarterly, and be payable on demand); or claim interest and statutory compensation from you pursuant to the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998.

 All goods supplied will remain the property of Safetyfirst Lifting Gear Services Limited until paid in full.

 (6)      Your warranties

 You warrant to us that:

 (a)      you are legally capable of entering into binding contracts, and you have full authority, power and capacity to agree to these terms of sale;

 (b)      the information provided in your order is accurate and complete; and

 (c)      you will be able to accept delivery of the products.

 (7)      Delivery policy

 We will arrange for the products to be delivered to the address for delivery indicated in your order.

 We will use reasonable endeavours to deliver products on or before the date for delivery set out in our order confirmation or, if no date is set out in our order confirmation, within 15 working days of the date of our order confirmation. However, we cannot guarantee delivery by the relevant date. We do however guarantee that unless there are exceptional circumstances all deliveries of products will be dispatched within 15 working days of the later of receipt of payment and the date of our order confirmation.

 (8)      Risk and ownership

 The products will be at your risk from the time of delivery. Ownership of the products will only pass to you upon the later of:

 (a)      delivery of the products; and

 (b)      receipt by us of full payment of all sums due in respect of the products (including delivery charges).

 Until ownership of the products has passed to you, you will possess the products as our fiduciary agent and bailee, and if you are a business customer you must store the products separately from other goods and ensure that the products are clearly identifiable as belonging to us.

 We will be entitled to recover payment for the products even where ownership has not passed to you.

 (9)      Consumers: statutory rights

 If you are a consumer, any statutory rights which you have, which cannot be excluded or limited, will not be affected by the terms of sale.

 (10)    Business customers: limitation of warranties

 This Section applies only to business customers, not consumers.

 We warrant to business customers that the products purchased from our website will:

 (a)      conform in all material respects to any applicable specification of such products published on our website / issued by us; and

 (b)      be free from material defects in materials and workmanship for a period of 1 year from the date of delivery of the products.

 These terms of sale set out the full extent of our obligations and liabilities in respect of the products supplied to business customers hereunder. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law and subject to the first paragraph of Section 12, all conditions, warranties or other terms concerning the products which might otherwise be implied into a contract with a business customer under these terms of sale are expressly excluded.

 (11)    Force majeure

 In this Section and Section 12 below, “force majeure event” means:

 (a)      any event which is beyond our reasonable control;

 (b)      the unavailability of raw materials, components or products; and/or

 (c)      power failure, industrial disputes affecting any third party, governmental regulations, fires, floods, disasters, civil riots, terrorist attacks or wars.

 Where a force majeure event gives rise to a failure or delay in us performing our obligations under these terms of sale, those obligations will be suspended for the duration of the force majeure event.

 If we become aware of a force majeure event which gives rise to, or which is likely to give rise to, any failure or delay in us performing our obligations under these terms of sale, we will notify you forthwith.

 We will take reasonable steps to mitigate the effects of the any force majeure event.

 (12)    Limitations and exclusions of liability

 Nothing in the terms of sale will: (a) limit or exclude the liability of a party for death or personal injury resulting from negligence; (b) limit or exclude the liability of a party for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation by that party; (c) limit any liability of a party in any way that is not permitted under applicable law; or (d) exclude any liability of a party that may not be excluded under applicable law. If you are a consumer, any statutory rights which you have, which cannot be excluded or limited, will not be affected by the terms of sale.

 The limitations and exclusions of liability set out in this Section and elsewhere in the terms of sale: (a) are subject to the preceding paragraph; (b) govern all liabilities arising under the terms of sale or in relation to the subject matter of the terms of sale, including liabilities arising in contract, in tort (including negligence) and for breach of statutory duty.

 We will not be liable to you in respect of any losses arising out of a force majeure event.

 We will not be liable to you in respect of any business losses, such as loss of or damage to profits, income, revenue, use, production, anticipated savings, business, contracts, commercial opportunities or goodwill.

 If you are a business customer, we will not be liable to you in respect of any loss or corruption of any data, database or software.

 If you are a business customer, we will not be liable to you in respect of any special, indirect or consequential loss or damage.

 If you are a business customer, our aggregate liability to you under the terms of sale will not exceed the total amount paid to us under the terms of sale.

 (13)    Business customers: indemnity

 If you are a business customer, you hereby indemnify us and undertake to keep us indemnified against all and any liabilities, losses, damages, expenses and costs (including legal expenses and amounts paid in settlement of any demand, action or claim) arising, directly or indirectly, out of a breach by you of any of your obligations under these terms of sale.

 (14)    Contract cancellation

 We may cancel a contract to supply products made under these terms of sale immediately by written notice to you if you fail to pay, on time and in full, any amount due to us under the contract, or commit any material breach of your obligations to us under the contract.

 If you are a business customer, we may cancel a contract to supply products made under these terms of sale if:

 (b)      you become insolvent or unable to pay your debts within the meaning of the insolvency legislation applicable to you;

 Upon the cancellation of a contract in accordance with Section 14:

 (a)      we will cease to have any obligation to deliver products which are undelivered at the date of cancellation;

 (b)      you will continue to have an obligation where applicable to pay for products which have been delivered at the date of cancellation (without prejudice to any right we may have to recover the products); and

 (c)      all the other provisions of these terms of sale will cease to have effect, except that Sections 8, 10, 12, 13, 15 and 17 will survive termination and have effect indefinitely.

 (16)    Scope of these terms of sale

 These terms of sale do not constitute or contain any assignment or licence of any intellectual property rights, do not govern the licensing of works (including software and literary works) comprised or stored in products, and do not govern the provision of any services by us or any third party in relation to the products.

 (17)    General terms

 Images of products on our website are for illustrative purposes; actual products may differ from such images.

 We will treat all your personal information that we collect in connection with your order in accordance with the terms of our privacy policy; use of our website will be subject to our website terms of use.

 Contracts under these terms of sale may only be varied by an instrument in writing signed by both you and us. We may revise these terms of sale from time-to-time, but such revisions will not affect the terms of any contracts which we have entered into with you.

 If any provision of these terms of sale is held invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect, and such invalid or unenforceable provisions or portion thereof will be deemed omitted.

 No waiver of any provision of these terms of sale, whether by conduct or otherwise, in any one or more instances, will be deemed to be, or be construed as, a further or continuing waiver of that provision or any other provision of these terms of sale.

 You may not assign, charge, sub-contract or otherwise transfer any of your rights or obligations arising under these terms of sale.   Any attempt by you to do so will be null and void. We may assign, charge, sub-contract or otherwise transfer any of our rights or obligations arising under these terms of sale, at any time – providing where you are a consumer that such action does not serve to reduce the guarantees benefiting you under these terms of sale.

Each contract under these terms of sale is made for the benefit of the parties to it and is not intended to benefit, or be enforceable by, any other person. The right of the parties to terminate, rescind, or agree any amendment, variation, waiver or settlement under such contracts is not subject to the consent of any person who is not a party to the relevant contract.

Subject to the first paragraph of Section 12: these terms of sale contain the entire agreement and understanding of the parties in relation to the purchase of products from our website, and supersede all previous agreements and understandings between the parties in relation to the purchase of products from our website; and each party acknowledges that no representations not expressly contained in these terms of sale have been made by or on behalf of the other party in relation to the purchase of products from our website.

These terms of sale will be governed by and construed in accordance with English law, and the courts of England and Wales will have exclusive jurisdiction to adjudicate any dispute arising under or in relation to these terms of sale.
